?Google Search?

Is there anyway of having a input text file submit information to the google search engine automatically.

User would enter the info, press a button, a new window would open showing search results…

If not is there anyway of entering search data, then loading the google window with the search criteria already entered into the google text field?

I saw a.fla on flashkit that did the first thing ^ but it doesnt seem to work anymore - it just comes up with a blank google window.

Thanks for any help,

Skid :eye: :crazy:

on(release){
getURL(“http://www.google.com/search?q=” + escape(inputField.text), “_blank”)
}

where inputField is the instance name of the input field you wish to give a google search for

Thanks very much thats just what I needed.

but can anyone explain to me what does it means?


?q=" + escape(inputField.text), "

a="I'm @ home";
trace (escape(a));

It’s just formatting.
